About this listing
JBL ASB6118-WH Single 18" Subwoofer
The ASB6118-WH is a heavyweight professional subwoofer engineered for consistent low-end reproduction in installed sound and live reinforcement applications. Its vented front-loaded design and substantial cabinet construction deliver controlled bass extension without the resonance issues common to sealed designs, making it a reliable foundation for full-range systems in mid-to-large venues.
Design & Build
Built from 16 mm exterior-grade 11-ply birch plywood, the cabinet resists flex and vibration while maintaining structural integrity under sustained high-output conditions. The 460 mm (18-inch) SVG Super Vented Gap driver with a 100 mm (4-inch) voice coil handles extended power without fatigue, and the front-mounted grille with acoustically transparent foam backing protects the driver while preserving frequency response. Weighing 98 lbs with M10 threaded suspension points, this unit integrates easily into flown or ground-stacked arrays.
Audio Performance
With 800W long-term power handling (3200W peak) and 98 dB system sensitivity, the ASB6118-WH generates 129 dB continuous SPL at 1 meter with 135 dB peak capability across its 35 Hz–1 kHz (±3 dB) frequency response. This performance envelope covers the critical low-frequency band (30–500 Hz) where the subwoofer must blend seamlessly with main speakers while delivering the impact modern live sound and installed systems demand.
